HTTP PUT JSON

See more HTTP Examples

Demonstrates how to send a JSON PUT and get the JSON response body. C#

bool success = false;

//  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.HttpRequest req = new Chilkat.HttpRequest();
Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

//  The PUT request to be sent will look like this:

//  PUT /request HTTP/1.1
//  Content-Type: application/jsonrequest
//  Cookie: JSESSIONID=1234
//  Content-Encoding: identity
//  Host: json.penzance.org
//  Accept: application/jsonrequest
//  Accept-Encoding:
//  Content-Length: 72
//  
//  {"user":"doctoravatar@penzance.com","forecast":7,"t":"vlIj","zip":94089}

//  First, remove default header fields that would be automatically
//  sent.  (These headers are harmless, and shouldn't need to 
//  be suppressed, but just in case...)
http.AcceptCharset = "";
http.UserAgent = "";
http.AcceptLanguage = "";

//  Suppress the Accept-Encoding header by disallowing 
//  a gzip response:
http.AllowGzip = false;

//  If a Cookie needs to be added...
http.SetRequestHeader("Cookie","JSESSIONID=1234");

//  Add the Content-Encoding: identity header.
http.SetRequestHeader("Content-Encoding","identity");

//  Modify the default "Accept" header:
http.Accept = "application/jsonrequest";

string jsonText = "{\"user\":\"doctoravatar@penzance.com\",\"forecast\":7,\"t\":\"vlIj\",\"zip\":94089}";

//  IMPORTANT: Make sure to change the URL, JSON text,
//  and other data items to your own values.  The URL used
//  in this example will not actually work.

Chilkat.HttpResponse resp = new Chilkat.HttpResponse();
